Sure-Flex Plus couplings utilize EPDM, Neoprene, and Hytrel™ flexible elastomer sleeves to transmit torque and accommodate shaft misalignment. Sure-Flex Plus couplings have exceptional torsional flexibility, with the 4-way flexing action absorbing virtually all types of shock, vibration, misalignment and end float. Sure-Flex Plus couplings are an excellent choice when low cost, high flexibility, low vibration and easy installation are important. Easy, Quick Installation New! Sure-Flex Plus can be installed quickly and easily, thanks to its simple design with no bolts, gaskets, covers or seals. For over 50 years, TB Wood’s has led the coupling industry Alignment can be checked on the precision-machined with the original TB Wood’s Sure-Flex design.

Engineering design is widely recognized as a field that can generate key innova - tions for complex problems, such as those elucidated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, engineering design training is not widely accessible to the global community, particularly to people experiencing the challenges that the SDGs are striving to address. Purpose. This manuscript describes the Ignite program created by the Center for Global Women’s Health Technologies (GWHT) at Duke University, which uses the human-centered design framework to apply engineering design concepts to address specific challenges associated with the SDGs. Design/Method. Undergraduate students participate in a design course (BME 290) to learn how to create and deliver a technological solution to increase access to light at night, which is a significant chal- lenge in many communities around the globe. A subset of the undergraduate students partnered with an energy-poor community in which they implemented a curriculum based on the skills learned in BME 290. Results. Since 2014, 110 Duke students have taken BME 290, and 22 of those students traveled internationally, collectively teaching 275 students in Kenya, India, and Guatemala. Students in Kenya SUMMER 2020 VOLUME 8 ISSUE 2 1 ADVANCES IN ENGINEERING EDUCATION Using Human-Centered Design to Connect Engineering Concepts to Sustainable Development Goals formed an engineering club and taught the curriculum to an additional 52 peers.

  • Development and Analysis of a Multi-Link Suspension for Racing Applications
    Development and analysis of a multi-link suspension for racing applications W. Lamers DCT 2008.077 Master’s thesis Coach: dr. ir. I.J.M. Besselink (Tu/e) Supervisor: Prof. dr. H. Nijmeijer (Tu/e) Committee members: dr. ir. R.M. van Druten (Tu/e) ir. H. Vun (PDE Automotive) Technische Universiteit Eindhoven Department Mechanical Engineering Dynamics and Control Group Eindhoven, May, 2008 Abstract University teams from around the world compete in the Formula SAE competition with prototype formula vehicles. The vehicles have to be developed, build and tested by the teams. The University Racing Eindhoven team from the Eindhoven University of Technology in The Netherlands competes with the URE04 vehicle in the 2007-2008 season. A new multi-link suspension has to be developed to improve handling, driver feedback and performance. Tyres play a crucial role in vehicle dynamics and therefore are tyre models fitted onto tyre measure- ment data such that they can be used to chose the tyre with the best characteristics, and to develop the suspension kinematics of the vehicle. These tyre models are also used for an analytic vehicle model to analyse the influence of vehicle pa- rameters such as its mass and centre of gravity height to develop a design strategy. Lowering the centre of gravity height is necessary to improve performance during cornering and braking. The development of the suspension kinematics is done by using numerical optimization techniques. The suspension kinematic objectives have to be approached as close as possible by relocating the sus- pension coordinates. The most important improvements of the suspension kinematics are firstly the harmonization of camber dependant kinematics which result in the optimal camber angles of the tyres during driving.

  • Design of Constant Velocity Coupling
    Design of Constant Velocity Coupling Prof. A. A. Moghe1, Mr. Yuvraj Patil2, Mr. Mayur Pawar³, Mr. Akshaykumar Thaware4, Mr. Nitin Thorawade5 1Assistant Professor, 2,3,4,5UG Students Department of Mechanical Engineering Sppu, PVPIT, Pune, Mahrashtra, India ABSTRACT: A coupling is mechanical device used to connect two shafts together at their ends for the purpose of transmission of power. The basic role of couplings is to join two parts of rotating elements while permitting some degree of misalignment or end movement or both. Presently Oldham’s coupling and Universal joints are used for parallel offset power transmission and angular offset transmission. These joints have limitations on maximum offset distance, angle, speed and result in vibrations, noise and low efficiency (below 70%). These limitations can be overcome with Thompson constant velocity (CV) coupling which offers features like minimizing side loads, higher misalignment capabilities, more operating speeds, improved efficiency of transmission and many more. The constant velocity joint is an alteration in design that offers up to 18 mm parallel offset and 21-degree angular offset, at high speeds up to 2000 or 2500 rpm at 90% efficiency. This design lowers cost of production, space requirement and simply technology of manufacture as compared too present CVJ in market. This paper presents review on constant velocity joints/couplings design and optimization. Keywords: Thompson constant velocity joint, Optimization & design, Constant velocity couplings, Parallel Offset, Angular Offset, Power Transmission. [I] INTRODUCTION The basic function of a power transmission coupling is to transmit torque from an input/driving shaft to an output/driven shaft at a specified shaft speed.

  • Tire Couplings
    Tire Couplings www.koreacoupling.co.kr Coupling Selection Coupling Selection How to Select Standard Selection The Standard Selection may be used for engine driven, motor, or turbine applications. The following information is required: • Application or equipment type (motor to pump, reducer to conveyor, etc.) • Shaft diameters (mm) • Gaps between shafts (mm) • Speed (RPM) • Horsepower or torque (Nm) 1. Rating : Determine system torque. Torque is calculated as follows : kW × 9,550 kW × 974 Ⅰ. Torque (Nm) = Ⅱ. Torque (Kg.m) RPM RPM 2. Service Factor : Determine appropriate service factor from page. 5-6 3. Minimum Coupling Rating : Determine the required minimum coupling rating as follows : Minimum Coupling Rating = Service Factor x Torque (Nm) 4. Type : Select the appropriate coupling type 5. Size : Trace the Toque column to find the value that is equal or greater than value from Step 3. 6. Check : Check speed (RPM), bore, gap and dimensions. Formula Selection The Standard Selection should be used for most coupling selections. The Formula Selection procedure below should be used for: • High Peak Loads. • Brake Applications (Brake disc or brake wheel is an integral part of coupling) Using the Formula Selection and providing system peak torque and frequency, duty cycle, and brake torque rating will allow for a more refined selection. 1. High Peak Loads : Use formula A or B for applications which involve motors with higher than normal torque characteristics. Applications should also be those with intermittent operations, including shock loading, inertia effects due to starting and stopping, system-induced repetitive high peak torques. System Peak Torque is the maximum torque that can exist in the system.
